can be varied by selecting a lower temperature setting on the Oven Temperature
Control Knob. Using lower
temperature
settings for broiling causes the broil element to cycle on and
off. The variable control can be used for broiling foods that need more
gentle, slow heating. If food is broiling too fast, the control can be set to
a lower temperature setting to reduce cooking speed.
(NOTE: The Oven Selector must remain in the “BROIL”
position for all
broiling. )

Oven work?
The walls of a standard oven are covered with a smooth porcelain
enamel finish The walls of a Continuous Cleaning Oven are coated with a
specially treated porcelain enamel. Instead of being smooth like glass. It is
rough llke a brick A fat spatter will form a solid drop on an ordinary smooth
porcelain enamel surface But on the porous textured porcelain enamel in
a Continuous
Cleaning Oven. a fat spatter spreads out when It hits the
oven walls
For comparison. think of the difference between a drop of water on a
paper towel and one on waxed paper. The water on the waxed paper will
bead up into a large drop The drop of water on the paper towel is absorbed
into the paper and spreads out over a large area. This is close to what
happens to a fat spatter 111the Continuous Cleaning Oven. Then when the
oven IS on for baking and roasting, the fat is easily heated and gradually
burns away to leave the coated surface in a presentably clean condition.
This is a continuous process: it does not happen instantly. In effect
the walls are continuously
cleaning themselves-any
time the oven is set
for medium to high temperatures
for baking or roasting
Depending
on how the oven is used, it usually can be presentably clean with little or
no hand cleaning.

This continuous cleaning process does not apply to non-coated parts
such as the oven door wlndow and oven racks.

If results aren’t what you expect
Remember, the oven is continuously
cleaning itself to a presentably clean appearance
at normal baking temperatures
If most of your
oven use is for broiling. and very little baking is done. you may see fat
spatters on the oven walls and door. This is because broiling normally
produces more spattenng than baking. If the appearance is of concern to
you. clean the oven following the directions given below.
To hand-clean
the Continuous
Cleaning Oven
If you have a lot of fat spatters on the oven walls or door. and wish to
clean them yourself, follou’ this procedure:
1 Wash the area with h(,t. soapy water and rinse well
2 Use a soapy steel wool pad or plastic scounng pad for more stubborn

13 DC, not use commercial oven cleaners. These cleaners may remain in
the textured prcclaln
enamel and reduce the effectiveness of the
continuous clcanlng surface.
NOTE:
The air-flow oven door keeps the outside of the door at the low
temperatures required for listing of the oven by Underwriters Laboratones. Inc. As a result. the inside of the door does not get as hot as the
oven walls. Because of the cool door. some hand-cleaning
of the door
may be required especially if oven is used often for broiling or if low
baking temperatures are frequently used.
